Pauline fulfilled her life's dream which allowed her , at twenty-five in Seattle, USA, to become an actress. After following theatre classes at Freehold Theatre Lab there and performing in various theatre productions and films , she returned to the Netherlands, determined to continue keep shining on stage there as well. She played several guest roles and presented RTL programmes such as Snowmagazine, ViaVacance and RTLZ programmes Sustainable Entrepreneurship, Local Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurial Affairs. As a result, her affinity for (sustainable) entrepreneurs with guts is growing.
When she is asked by Oxfam Novib to be a corporate ambassador, she becomes a day chairman instantly. Now she leads (business) events and gives interactive lectures herself on how to get moving as an organization and as an individual. Her motto: "Life is not a dress rehearsal".
Showing yourself is exciting. Most important (and most difficult)? Staying yourself. How can you confidently and happily be who you are when you are being watched? You need LEF for that and that is exactly what Pauline talks about in her keynote 'The guts to show yourself.
LEF stands for Love, Energy and Focus, those 3 ingredients will make you
moves...nothing more fun than letting people have the LEF to find out for themselves what they love, where their talent lies and where they can take a step forward today, both for themselves and for the organisation. If we want to get the burn-out rate down, we will have to see our people as our main asset and employees' personal well-being is just as important as their role in the organisation. Pauline always gets the room moving and guarantees that the day after will be different from today!
